I'm looking to buy a bike.
Sports Authority has a Diamondback x2 for $399 and offers a warranty type thing for $70 for 2 years free tune ups and adjustments.
REI: I dont have a specific bike in mind (maybe a Cannondale) but whatever I buy from them I can always take it back if I hate it or don't use it for months after the purchase.
Local bike shop: has nice Townie for $543 total, no warranty no returns.
Which do you think I should go for?
I really just want a bike to ride around town (gym, school, store) but mostly to get exercise instead of driving. And I'd like it not to hurt my back while riding it.
What's your recommendation and why?
